Hi, My name is Marlon Boothe. I recently found out about your community. I'm excited about joining you guys. I'm currently looking for sponsors. I tried joining the irc chanel but something went wrong at the end of the set up. Please help. Thanks.

: [[User:Gadlen|gadlen]], It does seem from the [[Community_Standards | Community Standards ]] history tab, that [[User:Flamsmark]] just went ahead and unilaterally shut out 71.135.45.11x for her/his/their editing there. So while it is certainly [[Vision#Excellence | Excellent ]] to be able to actively participate in the Wiki editing process just like you and 71.135.45.11x here, there are doubts whether [[User:Flamsmark]] himself will likewise participate par excellence, this based upon today's [[Getting_In | Getting In]] Revision history tab in which you last posed a reasonable question to him.

<br>Any further thoughts or rapprochements on this last part?

<br>## Note from some of the recent [https://www.noisebridge.net/pipermail/noisebridge-discuss/2013-November/date.html Discussion-list postings by date] that [[User:Flamsmark]] is likely taking the "Nuclear Option" in locking-out Wiki editing. Indeed, readers of this (including '''you''' [[User:Gadlen|gadlen]]) shouldn't ignore the recent Revision history tabs of both the Main [[Noisebridge]] Wiki '''and''' the [[Community_Standards]] wiki pages. And closely watch the [[Events]] Revision history tab to see '''when''' [[User:Flamsmark]] will "protect" that page too.

<br>As House TV series' Lisa Cuddy says to the Hospital Board when they vote to kick her out in the [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0606013/ Babies & Bathwater episode], "this may be the last decision you may ever have as Board Members".

<br><br>Be forewarned, [[User:Gadlen|gadlen]], you and other Wiki editors are '''definitely''' next!

Noisebridge has now been designated as'...
Isn't that just a long winded version of "is"?

new visitors are just as welcome as alwaysIf they are new, then they wouldn't have any reason to wonder why this statement might exist.

OTOH, gadlen, the most recent language using the terms "always welcome" is clearly more inviting and less cold to New Visitors. Although you yourself might disagree with this emphasis on attracting New Visitors to the Space, you might still want to more carefully review some of the Regular Members' proposals of this "more welcoming" matter on recent Discussion-list postings as well as in the last Meeting's minutes.

consider reading up onNo, it's important they read up on it.

OTOH, gadlen, the most recent language using the term "review"' succinctly hints at less in-depth "reading" of the required access methods; a definite +plus+ to many more of we excellent time-constrained folks.
Why indeed is it so "important" that New Visitors undergo the ordeal of being required to slog through something that even remotely approaches an undergraduate essay to find out what they really need to know??!!

but it's best to visit when Full or Associate Members are present
A new visitor doesn't care about the difference between full and associate members or that there is a difference. And saying it your way implies there is another, unstated type of member, which there isn't.

Dearest 71.135.35.112, those are excellent edits, thanks! I'm glad we got to bounce them back and forth a bit.

Required Slogging

(71.135.45.119, I moved your comment to a new section so it's more easily viewable. My response follows)

That is an excellent question! The gist is that it's really good for visitors to know that they will have a better experience (not get kicked out etc..) if they have a sponsor when they are in the space. This is because of the new "members and their guests only policy". So I'm guessing that the instructions to new visitors should try to strike a balance between "Visitors Welcome!" and "Here's exactly how to be an approved guest!" and "Look how easy it is to be an approved guest!" or something like that. And that is what is being worked on now... and you are participating in that very process! --gadlen (talk) 19:28, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

Doros, you'd do well writing your full question to the Noisebridge-Discussion mailing list --gadlen (talk) 00:49, 21 November 2013 (UTC)
